Get out of your comfort zone and meet new people with Uni-Life

Finding your way as a student in a new town can feel lonely. Uni-Life is a platform that brings students together. In the app, you can find all the events and activities that take place at Maastricht University. There are group chats for students with similar interests, the possibility to organise small events, and students can find a buddy to play sports with or go out. One of those students is Luisa Congedo. Uni-Life has really helped her. In fact, she has become an ambassador for the platform. 

“Uni-Life is a very good initiative. I wish I had discovered it when I started studying in Maastricht. Uni-Life has really helped me to meet new people and step out of my comfort zone. It has given me a lot of confidence and great experiences.”

“If you want to meet new people and step out of your comfort zone, Uni-Life is the perfect way to gain new experiences. Not only will you meet new friends, but it's also a great way to network.”
